perfectly normal and as long as they do not mind I suggest you do not stop them. the older of the two will know when she will feel she needs privacy and I think you should be ok with it.

i think a 12 year old is to old to be bathing with a six year old..12 years old is 1 year away from being a teenager and it is time for your 12 year old daughter to start learning how to be independent.
I think now is the perfect time that they should start taking baths by themselves

Yes! your daughters will let you know when thier too old to take a bath together just pay attention and I bet your older daughter will either show signs that she is no longer comfortable or she will tell you. I think it's great thier still close with that kind of age difference and I wouldnt do anything to take that away until thier ready.

As long as they're both cool with it, don't worry about it. When the 12-year-old starts to get uncomfortable, then it's time for a change. Just be open to the signals.

Being that they are sisters, this really comes down to whenever the older one decides she no longer wants to bathe with her younger sister. There's nothing "wrong" with it... only to people who are wierd and think that way would see something wrong with it. Your two daughters may just share a close bond (not that way).

You need to let them grow how they want to. They will let you know how they feel about it. But you could bring it up to the older one, by giving a suggestion to have a shower by herself. But just watch her reaction. And she is ready for that then you will know but she might not be ready. But make sure you are ok with it when she is ready for it.

The 12 year old will probably want to start doing it on her own any day now.

you can make them star t showering whenevr you are ready to do it theres no rush they are sisters and they seems to be close you dont want to take that away fromt them, even if you just make a suggestion like hey wouldnt you like to have a shower tonight?? see what happens but there is no rush as all.
